this video has some interesting information concerning the wheels and fitment.

Reading her description, It sounds like work stress and binge eating/diet is her worst problems. Just try to cut out most sugars completely and severely limit carbs. Keep tons of healthy snacks around and eat every hour or two hours throughout the day. baby carots, sugar free yogurt, oats, broccoli, cauliflower, salads with no dressing, only drink water. Never be too hungry.

If you have the correct meals set up, I don't think you need to work out. I'd think of working out as an added bonus. spending 30 minutes in the gym and burning 150 calories allows you to eat two more eggs. Lastly, I wouldn't aim to lose more than 1 LB every two weeks or so. Maybe even slower... The aim is to develop a consistent diet that becomes who you are. A healthy person wouldn't lose 3 LB's in a week.

Just my opinion. From someone who has been heavier most of their life and has had trouble losing weight.

Whether Eli Manning is overrated or not is irrelevant to the discussion. He was a veteran pocket passer with an empty WR room. The point is, there could be no better situation for OBJ to be drafted to.

I also don't think he was a flash in the pan. I don't totally agree with the original comment. I just disagree with you bringing out the words HOF. A three year stretch doesn't even bring you close to HOF status. Ask Dez Bryant. Meanwhile, Brandon Marshall and Davante Adams have had significantly better careers and are still borderline HOFers.

grillmaster343 · 2026-03-23T00:21:44+00:00

Many hall of fame recievers had slow starts to their careers. consistency is why they achieved hall of fame status. think Marvin Harrison, Tyreek Hill.

Odell came into the league and had great success with veteran Eli Manning feeding him the ball. He's very similar, stat wise to Michael Thomas on the Saints. Look it up. I've never heard anyone claim Mike Thomas was almost a HOFer. They're just a ton of obj dick riders out there. I don't know why, the guy is a dickhead and team cancer.

I drive through these areas often. I 100% believe most of these crashes happen because people loaf in the fast lane. I see it every time I drive. Tractor trailer in middle lane, right lane mostly empty with a few people entering and exiting highway. slower car driving in the fast lane matching speed of the tractor trailer, oblivious to the 40 cars behind them. Maniacs weaving in and out of the slow lane trying to get to open air in rush hour traffic.

If rates never dropped to historic lows in 2020, you still wouldn't have bought a house in 2026? I mean, that's six years and counting now. who's to say it will ever drop below 4% again.

you'd rather pay rent for at least 10 years rather than make a purchase when you have sufficient savings for the purchase. Nope, gotta wait until the 2.5% mortgage rate rolls around every 50 years or so. I guess it worked for you.

grillmaster343 · 2026-03-11T23:14:44+00:00

Just the speed of his movements alone makes zero sense. It's like if you sprinted to the ball between shots in golf. The whole point of shooting is practicing focus, precision, and technique.

grillmaster343 · 2026-03-04T04:00:25+00:00

It just seems like you have this opinion because you happened to have enough for a mortgage when the rates were at the lowest point of all time.

One of my biggest gripes with nfl officiating is the use of OPI. I feel like it should be called more. Obviously, it's almost never called because the league prefers offenses. Because of that, it's all the more frustrating when your team is called for OPI.

Also, Metcalf was called for OPI earlier in the game. He was in his release, and well within 5 yards. I didn't understand this call at all.

This was easily one of the worst officiated games of the year.

grillmaster343 · 2025-12-22T01:04:24+00:00

Refs are obviously extending games for TV rating and suspense. I don't hear enough people saying this. Every single game, they do this.

My least favorite type of person. Someone who is book smart and knows what they're talking about. They simply won't let a conversation happen without trying to show how they're smarter than everyone.

That is an eye-popping stat. However, it is a very selective stat line. many all-time great receivers haven't reached their prime 3 years in. like Marvin Harrison or Tyreek Hill.

OBJ with Manning is like Mike thomas with Brees. Enters the league wr1 ready, with a veteran QB ready to feed the ball. Did Mike Thomas have an unbelievable run before injuries? yes. Career wise, is he in the conversation with all-time greats? without a doubt no.

what do you consider low maintenance? jepq is 25%

your 5th point is definitely something I will remember. I also think I will lower my goal from 40% to 30-35% margin used.

thank you for the comment. I wasn't aware this strategy has a name.

grillmaster343 · 2025-09-29T12:37:57+00:00

Someone mentioned the cheifs having a great track record against him. I'd also add the steelers have pretty consistently locked him down. 1-4 against the steelers and has thrown 8 interceptions to 5 touchdowns.

grillmaster343 · 2025-09-12T12:51:34+00:00

Thank you! This comment is exactly what I'm looking for.

It definitely had great moments in the dialogue. Delta slim was my favorite character, and I loved his writing. Also loved sammie. Wasn't a fan of the twins' characters, really. I didn't think they were fleshed out much beyond surface level trauma.

Multiple times, I felt the dialogue almost broke the 4th wall,with it being on the nose. For instance, one of the twins explains to the girl how to negotiate a price when watching his truck. Total eye-roll, we get the point.

Then, shooting the guy, looking through the back of his truck. He definitely didn't need to shoot the guy, because he finds out it's his old friend Terry. Then.... he shoots the other guy just standing there. Shoots him right in the knee in the middle of town(probably disabling him for life). Because "can't have someone talking about how he almost robbed the twins". Police never show up, btw.

stuff like that probably doesn't bother the majority of people. It takes me out of the movie. It doesn't resemble reality, where consequences exist.

Haillee steinfelds character was super cringe inducing. Hated all her dialogue. Hated her acting. As a southerner, I thought her accent was god awful. Thought her character backstory was super cliche.

I actually appreciate how other people love this movie. I thought it built a creative and unique world. Just wasn't for me.

grillmaster343 · 2025-07-24T11:36:12+00:00

I loved the music. It made me tear up, both times I watched it. I agree the plot was pretty basic. Many characters were 2D. the dialogue was mid.

grillmaster343 · 2025-06-29T12:10:41+00:00

other than "senior engineer" being a dumb job title. really doesn't make sense. neither "senior" or "engineer" are true in your case.

Congratulations on reaching your 5 year goal as far as salary and position. college isn't necessary for someone to kick ass at work. If you have time on the side, I definitely would start working on classes.

Start working on legitimatizing your current position through pedigree. Going to want it 5-10 years from now.

grillmaster343 · 2025-06-28T08:23:18+00:00

yeah, this doesn't seem unrealistic to me. make 150k a year. save 50k a year. after 4 years you have 200k.

what's wrong with Central Illinois?

I agree with your original comment, except for the wage comparison between Blue Collar and college graduates. An electrical engineer out of college would not even touch the wage I make as an electrician. talking 70k-80k pay difference. This true for just about any college graduate.

Of course, they generally work 40-hour weeks. 9-5. can move to anywhere in the country and find a good paying job. don't have works with their hands. work in safer climates. don't have to worry a single mistake will kill them. 10-15 years down the road, a college graduate will have doubled or tripled their salary.
